TREASURERS REPORT
Hal Gensler reported a current bank balance of approximately $21,000.00 and a new CD for $5,000.00 was
purchased this month. Hal presented to the Board a detailed projected budget for 2007 and income and
expense accounts. Discussions followed relating to projected expenses for vehicles and timing equipment
maintenance Hal asked that Board members list items for budget consideration, and present them at the
next meeting.

MEMBERSHIP REPORT
Norm Janoff reported total membership increased by eight members this month.

OLD BUSINESS
Norm initiated further discussions about chip discounts and suggested future test offers while final
decisions are to be made at a later date. Volunteer recognition and yearly awards are again discussed.
The names of some volunteers who go above and beyond in time contributions and assumption of
responsibilities continue to be mentioned. To name just a few, Robert Huotari, Ron LeDesma, Roy K.
Weinberg, Bill Rowell, the Greer’s and the Baileys. Suggestions for awards to the top 10 volunteers for
the year include free memberships and race entries. The volunteer of the year will receive special
recognition and awards to be presented at the January volunteers and Grand Prix awards general meeting.
The volunteers will also be recognized in our newsletter. Awards for the Grand Prix series were suggested
by Hal. Gift certificates for $100 will be presented to the overall female and male winners in addition
to a plaque. Plaques will also be presented to all age group winners. This our inaugural year for the
Grand Prix included  67 participants.

NEW BUSINESS
Discussions relating to the lease of a warehouse facility in Phoenix continued while considering the
2007 budget. The amount of ARR funds to pay the rent even if projected income is not generated was
examined and found to be adequate. Therefore Sandra initiated a motion to lease the space discussed for
a period of one year, and then re-evaluate its cost efficacy. The motion passed unanimously. Gary Culver
started discussion about compensating working members and Board members. Gary believes the exorbitant
hours spent by volunteers and working Board members to stage and time 20 plus races a year should be
recognized by some monetary compensation. Therefore a motion was made and passed to form an independent
task force to determine the feasibilities of presenting amenities to volunteers and/or working Board
members. Bill Rowell will write and publish an email blast to solicit club members for the task force.

The meeting was adjourned at 9:00 PM.
